PlanSig 2010 - The 28th Workshop of the UK PLANNING AND SCHEDULING Special Interest Group jointly with The 4th ITALIAN WORKSHOP ON PLANNING AND SCHEDULING

After a short gap, the UK PlanSIG is meeting once again in 2010, jointly with the 4th Italian Workshop on Planning and Scheduling.

The PlanSIG workshop is (usually) a yearly forum where academics, industrialists, and research students can meet and discuss current issues in an informal setting. We especially aim to bring together researchers attacking different aspects of planning and scheduling problems, and to introduce new researchers to the community.

In recent years the SIG has attracted an international gathering, and we continue to welcome contributions from around the world. As part of this positive engagement with the international community, PlanSIG has occasionally been hosted outside the UK, and 2010 is an example.

The Italian Workshop on Planning and Scheduling has been held less frequently than the PlanSIG workshop, but it has very similar spirit and goals.

The 28th Workshop of the UK PLANNING AND SCHEDULING Special Interest Group and the 4th ITALIAN WORKSHOP ON PLANNING AND SCHEDULING will be hosted by the University of Brescia, Italy, in the context of the 11th Italian Association for AI Symposium on AI, AI*IA 2010, December 1-3.

The expected date of the workshop, December 1, is to be confirmed (a possible change to December 2/3 depends on organizational reasons).

Submissions to the event are solicited. Each contribution will be reviewed. Accepted original papers will appear in PlanSig's Proceedings (ISSN 1368-5708). Original and already published papers will be made available via the workshop web-site. Authors of already published papers must clearly indicate this information in their submission.
